I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock I am an island

O Willie's gane to Melville Castle,
Boots and spurs an a',
To bid the leddies a' fareweel
Before he ga'ed awa'.
Willie's young and blythe and bonnie,
Lo'ed by ane and a',
Oh! What will all the lassies do
When Willie gaes awa?

Hans plays with Lotte, Lotte plays with Jane
Jane plays with Willy, Willy is happy again
Suki plays with Leo, Sacha plays with Britt
Adolf builds a bonfire, Enrico plays with it
Whistling tunes
We hide in the dunes by the seaside
Whistling tunes
We're kissing baboons in the jungle
It's a knockout
If looks could kill, they probably will
In games without frontiers
War without tears

Caleo Sat 14-Jan-23 00:32:50

Hello, hello, who's your lady friend?
Who's the little girlie by your side?
I've seen you with a girl or two,
Oh! Oh! Oh! I AM surprised at you.
Hello, hello. Stop your little games,
Don't you think your ways you ought to mend?
This isn't the girl I saw you with on Friday.
Who, who, who's your lady friend?

Grandyma Sat 14-Jan-23 00:10:31

Hello, Dolly,
Well, hello, Dolly
It's so nice to have you back where you belong
You're lookin' swell, Dolly
I can tell, Dolly
You're still glowin', you're still crowin'
You're still goin' strong
We feel the room swayin'
While the band's playin'
One of your old favourite songs from way back when
So, take her wrap, fellas
Find her an empty lap, fellas
Dolly'll never go away again

Caleo Fri 13-Jan-23 23:41:52

I have come to say goodbye, Dolly Gray,
It's no use to ask me why, Dolly Gray,
There's a murmur in the air, you can hear it everywhere,
It's the time to do and dare, Dolly Gray.
So if you hear the sound of feet, Dolly Gray,
Sounding through the village street, Dolly Gray,
It's the tramp of soldiers' true in their uniforms so blue,
I must say goodbye to you, Dolly Gray.
Goodbye Dolly I must leave you, though it breaks my heart to go,
Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe,
See - the boys in blue are marching and I can no longer stay,
Hark - I hear the bugle calling, goodbye Dolly Gray.

dayvidg Fri 13-Jan-23 21:29:10

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be?
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go?
And leave my world so cold

LadyHonoriaDedlock Fri 13-Jan-23 20:58:01

Walked out this morning, I don't believe what I saw
Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
Hundred billion castaways, looking for a home

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is save every day 'til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you ...

dayvidg Fri 13-Jan-23 19:48:25

You never thought you'd be alone
This far down the line
But I know what's been on your mind
You're afraid it's all been wasted time

Alioop Fri 13-Jan-23 19:26:20

Think about it, there must be a higher love
Down in the heart, or in the stars above
Without it, life is wasted time
Look inside your heart and I'll look inside mine

LadyHonoriaDedlock Fri 13-Jan-23 18:13:09

Now once, I was down-hearted
Disappointment, was my closest friend
But then you, came and it soon departed
And you know he never showed his face again
That's why your love
Keeps on lifting me higher
Higher and higher

Grandyma Fri 13-Jan-23 18:01:43

Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming
I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning
And nothing can cool me
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine

dayvidg Fri 13-Jan-23 17:42:09

We will light a giant burning fire tonight
We will light it and dance in the smoke
Every branch we'll tie somebody's worries to it
We will burn it and dance in the smoke

SachaMac Fri 13-Jan-23 16:47:52

I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio
You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly (radio

MiniMoon Fri 13-Jan-23 16:40:08

Long ago, and, oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here, it's just the radio

Grandyma Fri 13-Jan-23 16:01:22

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away
Long ago, I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could, but you're so far away

Caleo Fri 13-Jan-23 13:22:26

As chimes that flow o'er shining seas
When morn alights on meads of May,
Faint voices fill the western breeze,
With whisp'ring song from far away.
O dear the dells of Dunavore
A home in od'rous Ossory,
But sweet as honey running o'er,
The golden shore of Far Away.

dayvidg Fri 13-Jan-23 11:43:08

You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze
Come on, you target for faraway laughter
Come on, you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

Grandyma Fri 13-Jan-23 10:55:20

Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and proved untrue
Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

MiniMoon Fri 13-Jan-23 10:05:26

Oh, the sun shines bright
On my old Kentucky home
'Tis summer,
The old folks are gay
Well, the corn top's ripe
And the meadow's in the bloom
While the birds make music
All the day

Caleo Fri 13-Jan-23 03:27:33

By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes,
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond,
Where me and my true love were ever wont to gae,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.

Chorus:
O ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore ye,
But me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.

Grandyma Thu 12-Jan-23 23:56:46

Suntanned, windblown
Honeymooners at last alone
Feeling far above par
Oh, how lucky we are
While I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on, it'll always be
True love, true love

Caleo Thu 12-Jan-23 22:36:27

On the fifth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Five golden rings (five golden rings)
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtle-doves
And a partridge in a pear tree

MiniMoon Thu 12-Jan-23 22:22:37

Now that you're gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me

dayvidg Thu 12-Jan-23 20:34:30

When you hear this sound a-comin'
Hear the drummer drumming
Won't you join together with the band
We don't move in any 'ticular direction
And we don't make no collections
Won't you join together with the band
